Heliod, the Warped Eclipse reduces Recruit the Worthy's buyback cost to zero once opponents have drawn three cards, letting Chromatic Lantern pay the white for it each loop; Hullbreaker Horror bounces the Lantern back to hand on every cast, and Chromatic Lantern's zero casting cost means replaying it is free. The result is an unbounded loop that fires magecraft, ETB, and storm triggers on every iteration — Aetherflux Reservoir or Gutgutsa, Goblin Guildmage close immediately.

Variations
Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines
Any mana rock that taps for white and costs zero to recast satisfies Lantern's role — Mox Pearl is the strict upgrade if available. The loop requires opponents to have drawn three cards first, so lean on wheel effects like Windfall or Jace, the Mind Sculptor activations earlier in the turn to guarantee the Warped Eclipse cost reduction before going off.
